DBT finds more cancers, reduces unnecessary recalls
February 19, 2020 -- Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) found more than twice as many cancers as full-field digital mammography alone or a combination of the two technologies in a recent study, published online February 14 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

Discuss AI in radiology? Patients are cautiously optimistic
February 19, 2020 -- Patients are optimistic about the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiology, with a caveat: They don't want AI technology to break the connection between patient and care provider, according to a case study published February 14 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

Discuss Prehydration not needed before contrast CT of kidneys
February 18, 2020 -- Prehydrating patients who have chronic kidney disease before they undergo a contrast-enhanced CT exam has been the standard of care for years. But new research suggests that the practice results in unnecessary costs with few patient benefits. The findings were published online on February 17 in JAMA Internal Medicine.

Discuss Amyloid PET results prompt adults to rethink their future
February 18, 2020 -- When PET scans reveal elevated amyloid levels in cognitively normal older adults, the prospect of possibly progressing to Alzheimer's disease prompts many of them to reconsider their future priorities.

Discuss Can ultrasound, 3D printing deepen maternal-fetal bonds?
February 18, 2020 -- When a pregnant woman sees her fetus on imaging scans, it can help strengthen the bond she feels with her unborn child, say researchers. They demonstrate how 3D-printed models based on ultrasound scans confirmed this concept in a study published online on February 8 in the Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic, and Neonatal Nursing.

Discuss Old CT image shows screw in 5-year-old's jaw, ends in surgery
February 18, 2020 -- A mother in Colorado is considering suing after she discovered a CT image that showed a large screw embedded in the jaw of her 5-year-old daughter, which likely was left there during a surgery when she was an infant, according to news reports.

Discuss Which ultrasound method is best for DVT? All of them
February 17, 2020 -- Three different compression ultrasound methods all performed well for imaging deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in a study published online on February 11 by PLOS One. The failure rates for single limited, serial limited, and whole-leg ultrasound ranged from 1% to 2%.

Discuss CT lung screening risk models optimize nodule management
February 14, 2020 -- Risk prediction models can differentiate between benign and malignant nodules detected on CT lung cancer screening exams more accurately than current clinical guidelines, underscoring the potential value of the models for lung nodule management, according to a study published online February 14 in JAMA Network Open.
